We respect and protect the privacy of those who use our services and are strongly committed to protecting your privacy online.

This Privacy Policy applies to this website and related sites, products, and services provided by Fiscal Advantage (collectively, “Products”). The contents herein explain how Fiscal Advantage collects, uses, shares, and protects information you share with us through the use of our Products.

PURCHASING A FISCAL ADVANTAGE SUBSCRIPTION

Whenever you purchase a Fiscal Advantage subscription, you are asked for certain personally identifiable information, including your name, company name, address, phone number, and email address. We may collect and store sensitive information such as account and purchase information on your behalf as part of the services provided to you. We do not share your information with outside companies for their promotional use. If we have trouble processing your order, we use the information to contact you. We may use the contact information to notify you about upcoming service-related enhancements or outages to Fiscal Advantage and about special offers.

ENTERING DATA INTO FISCAL ADVANTAGE PRODUCTS

Fiscal Advantage collects the data and other information that you enter in Fiscal Advantage. The saved data and other information are segregated so personally identifiable information (i.e., information that identifies a particular client/customer or other individual) is kept separate from the report data, i.e. the sensitive financial and company information in a report is not directly associated with a specific individual or company.

Fiscal Advantage will not publish or sell personally identifiable data (information that identifies a particular client/customer or other individual) without your express permission, and we agree to maintain the confidentiality of your information. Fiscal Advantage reserves the right to use any data and information provided by users for internal quality control and product development as necessary for supporting the Products. In addition, Fiscal Advantage reserves the right to freely use, sell, and distribute all data provided by users from which Fiscal Advantage has removed personally identifiable information. This may include the future development of financial models, indices, or other reports derived from the financial data entered. Do not enter data or other information into our applications if you do not want your or your client data being used in this manner or contributed to our aggregate database.

Please note: If you have purchased a Fiscal Advantage subscription and are uncomfortable with Fiscal Advantage collecting your data, please contact us at 844-834-7225. Do not use Fiscal Advantage if you disagree with Fiscal Advantage using your data or other information in the manner described.

SAFEGUARDING CUSTOMER INFORMATION

Fiscal Advantage takes the following precautions to safeguard customer information.

Anonymity: Fiscal Advantage does not require a client name to be entered into our products to generate an analysis. We also recommend that an “alias” be used when submitting data for analysis. This ensures that no company can be associated with the financial data entered in our products.

Fiscal Advantage stores and aggregates your report data, so we can build and continually improve our industry benchmark database, financial models, and other products. Fiscal Advantage will not publish or sell personally identifiable data (information that identifies a particular client/customer or other individual) without your express permission, and we agree to maintain the confidentiality of your information. Fiscal Advantage reserves the right to use any data and information provided by users for internal quality control and product development as necessary for supporting our products. In addition, Fiscal Advantage reserves the right to freely use, sell, and distribute all data provided by users from which Fiscal Advantage has removed personally identifiable information. This may include the future development of financial models, indices, or other reports derived from the financial data entered. Do not enter data or other information into our applications if you do not want your or your client data being used in this manner or contributed to our aggregate database.

Please note: If you have purchased a Fiscal Advantage subscription and are uncomfortable with Fiscal Advantage collecting your data, please contact us at 844-834-7225. Do not use Fiscal Advantage if you do not want your data to be used in the manner described in the above paragraph.

Security: Fiscal Advantage employs industry-recognized security safeguards to help protect the personally identifiable information that has been provided to us from loss, misuse, or unauthorized alteration. Secure server software (SSL) encrypts all information entered through our web interface so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. Therefore, all of the information that is entered into the Fiscal Advantage system is securely transmitted through industry standard SSL protocols as well as full data encryption at rest.

In addition to SSL security, a Comodo Security Certificate is applied on our site’s servers to protect the confidentiality of your information. Comodo provides internet security to over 200,000 businesses making it one of the largest providers of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and digital certificate solutions used by enterprises, web sites, and consumers to conduct secure communications and transactions over the Internet and private networks.

Control of customer data: If you use Fiscal Advantage, you control of all data that is submitted for analysis by the data you enter. If you would like your data deleted from your profile, you can enter zeros in each field, or contact us and we will delete your entire profile.

Fiscal Advantage commits to maintaining the above measures and to working with our customers to monitor and modify our programs as needed to address any security concerns.

USE OF YOUR INFORMATION

Certain reports made available by Fiscal Advantage are based on aggregate statistics for industry groups, but Fiscal Advantage does not use company-identifiable data. Fiscal Advantage aggregates and stores your data so that we can continually build and improve our industry benchmark database.
